This
World Premiere Trailer from The Game Awards officially reveals
Star Wars
Eclipse, as the new Star Wars game in development at French developer
Quantic Dream. This confirms
a recent rumor to
this effect, for those keeping score at home. This is the first game set
during the high republic, but it's in early development and the trailer includes
no gameplay, so it may be a while before we really know what to expect.
StarWars.com
has the details:
As the first video game to be set in the era of The High Republic, the
multimedia initiative that launched with publishing earlier this year, Star Wars
Eclipse will feature an original story and unique new characters, each with
their own paths, abilities, and roles to play in the tapestry of events that
could alter the carefully balanced peace in an uncharted section of the Outer
Rim.
Star Wars Eclipse will be an intricately branching action-adventure game that
can be experienced in multiple ways, putting the destinies of an array of
playable characters in your hands. Your choices will be at the heart of the
experience, as every decision can have a dramatic impact on the course of the
story. Through these decisions, players will forge their own legend in the
golden age of the Jedi. Star Wars Eclipse is currently in the early stages of
development at Quantic Dream’s studios in Paris, France and Montreal,
Canada.
